[sllug-members]: new guy and help needed

[Jason Edwards]

Hi Tony,

Welcome to Utah.

I'm not sure if this is what you're looking for, but I made a little
spreadsheet, and this is what it contains:

A1 | 280
A5 | 260
A6 | 270
A7 | 260

B1 | =A5-A1 #=> -20
B2 | =A6-A1 #=> -10
B3 | =A7-A1 #=> -20

C1 | =SUM(B1:B2) #=> -30

Is that what you were looking for?

Jason
